Re: '69 Yenko Nova questions
Dick bought the car from Carl Dwiggins. It was restored by Dave Tinell(sp). Carl was selling a bunch of stuff so Dick bought that Nova, a Yenko chevelle which ended up in IL I think, and a 65 425 HP Impala, and I think a couple more cars that he sold off. The Nova had a lot of problems so he wanted it totally done over. We did not paint it but it was totally taken apart and redone. That was a long time ago and from what I recall everything was just like a 375 HP car. I dont think they were factory installed 427's unlike the Chevelles or Camaros, there is no special rear end #. I wish I would have taken more shots of that car, but I dont have much. It is on my site on the past projects page.
